humidity effects the evaporation in the following ways: 1. In a closed container rate of evaporation will have a lesser value than usual.but there will be no decrease in the rate.

Relationship between evaporation and relative humidity?

Evaporation is the process by which a liquid turns into a gas, while relative humidity is the ratio of the amount of water vapor present in the air compared to the maximum amount the air can hold at a specific temperature. A higher relative humidity means the air is already holding a lot of water vapor and so evaporation will be slower, while a lower relative humidity allows for faster evaporation as the air has more capacity to hold additional water vapor.


Why the rate of evaporation of an aqueous solution decrease with increase in humidty?

At limes of low humidity fluids evaporate more quickly because they can be easily taken up by the surrounding environment, at 100% humidity evaporation stops, evaporated water can be measured as relative humidity


Does evaporation take place when relative humidity is high or low?

Evaporation takes place when relative humidity is low because the air has a higher capacity to hold water vapor. When relative humidity is high, the air is already saturated with water vapor, making it difficult for additional moisture to evaporate.


How much water vapor is needed to saturate the air?

This is called the relative humidity. It changes due to evaporation and precipitation, and warm air can hold more water than cooler air.


How do you increase the relative humidity of an air mass?

Add water (vapor) ... evaporation. Lower the temperature of the air mass.


How many time required of evaporation of 500ml water in sunlight?

Evaporation is really dependent on temperature, relative humidity and surface area not sunlight. Sunlight may increase evaporation by raising the temperature of the water through radiant heat.


What would be a brief project description for does the rate of evaporation of water depend upon the temperature?

The fact is this is not the variable you should be looking at rather the Relative humidity and the air pressure takes a part in it if you have a low RH you will get fast evaporation compared to high humidity where the water has no where to go.


What isThe opposite of evaporation?

Condensation is the opposite of evaporation this is known to happen at dew point when suspended water known as and measured as relative humidity drops out of suspension from the surrounding air and forms on cooler surfaces as water


Does the color of water affet how long it takes to evaporate?

only very slightly. the speed of evaporation is influenced by the relative humidity in the air that it is in contact with.


How does humidity afect evaporation?

High humidity retards evaporation, and it may not occur at all if the air is at saturation, Low humidity accelerates it, and in extremely hot, and dry conditions water may vaporize quite readily, and rapidly. See psychrometrics, Relative Hummidity, Latent Heat, and sublimation.


Do water puddles evaporate faster on days when the humidity is high or low?

Low, this is because the relative humidity is also lower. The relative humidity is how much water vapor is in the aircompared to how much it can hold, if it is lower, it can hols more so wet things dry faster.


What is the relative humidity if air that holds ll the water it can?

what is the relative humidity of air that holds all the water it can
